Read The Texas Tribune’s comprehensive coverage of voting rights issues and tell us if you’ve encountered problems while trying to vote in Texas.
More in this seriesIn a very good year, just half of eligible Texans cast ballots. The state's voter turnout often ranks among the lowest in the country.
Yet despite that stubborn reality, some of the challenges Texans face in registering to vote and trying to participate in elections have gone unaddressed by state leaders for years. What's more, leaders have instituted voting changes in recent years that have thrown up more barriers, particularly for voters of color or low-income voters.
We want you to help us report on the challenges Texans face when trying to vote — and the possible ways to address them — by telling us about the hurdles or problems you've run into while trying to exercise your right to vote in Texas.
